NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

05/08/2010 - Provo, UT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brigham Young guard Jimmer Fredette announced on Saturday he has withdrawn his name from the upcoming NBA Draft and will return to play for the Cougars for his senior season.

Fredette led BYU to a program-record 30 victories and a first-round victory in the NCAA Tournament this past season. He scored a team-best 22.1 points per game to go with 4.7 assists. Fredette poured in 37 points in BYU's 99-92 double-overtime win over Florida in the first round of the tournament.

The 6-foot-2 guard declared for the draft on April 19 but did not hire an agent to maintain his eligibility.

"I had a great experience going through the whole process," Fredette said. "I met some great people and learned a lot. I was able to impress a lot of people and I think they will be interested to see how I do this coming season. I hope to play extremely well my senior year and achieve our team goals and my personal goals and get drafted next year."

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country.
